In short: this place has delicious vegan takeout for great prices. For those who may remember Vej Naturals or the early days of Pulse, the same chef (Bob Bouley) is working magic in the Fruition Vegan Kitchen. I've been there 3 times so far and tried: Caesar Salad, Lebanese Salad, Caprese Sandwich, Moqueca and Gyro Sandwich. All were quite sizable for the price ($8 salads, $8.5 sandwiches, $10 entree). The salads are the size of a full meal, FYI. My favorites were the Caesar Salad and Caprese Sandwich, but I enjoyed them all. The menu varies from week to week (check their website) and is mostly Americana cuisine with some International options. It's mostly on the healthy side (for example, the falafel is baked, not fried), but also tasty, even if some familiar dishes (e.g., falafel, tofu moqueca) aren't as salty/greasy as you might expect. But some dishes are decadent (e.g., seitan gyro). Occasionally, off-menu options may be available, while supplies last (e.g., baked goods, sides like stuffed grape leaves). On the downside, this place is small, basically just a takeout counter (with 2 tiny 2-person tables on the side), so you probably shouldn't expect to eat here. My experience calling in orders has been great, my food has been ready in 10 minutes, by the time I got there. Also, note that the hours are limited (3 hrs for lunch + 3 hrs for dinner, Tues-Sat). I uploaded some pictures of the storefront and food & will try to add more later. I plan to go here at least once a month.
